Sticks and stones may break your bones
But love will always hurt you

Life is a test
A series of choices

Your time here is measured
By the venom in your voices

Give unto others without reservation

Help your neighbor
With no hesitation

Feed the hungry

Remove discrimination

Offer a hand

Become an inspiration

Open your mind
Start a revolution
Inspire a change
To create the solution

With our eyes cast downward
We pretend not to see
The misery and demise  
In the wake of our greed

If someone is hungry...
Cold or unloved
Offer your heart
Give them a hug

What you share
Will return tenfold
So offer a hand
Help carry the load

Offer a smile
Share your bliss
Inspire others
Change what is

Share your joy
Inspire others to love
Together
We can change the world.

Namaste

Dear self,
I'm sorry you got hurt
I'm sorry he broke your heart
I'm sorry you're empty
I know you loved him with everything you had
I know he was your everything
I know how much you needed him
And how much you loved him
I know how much you want him back
But he's not coming back
Please stop crying
I know your heart is breaking and you can't do anything about it
But sit there
And feel it
I'm sorry you're going through this
I'm sorry he left
I'm sorry you feel this way
I'm sorry for everything
Please little dove
Never fall in love again

I hope flowers grow in the darkest parts of you.
Daisies in your sadness,
Roses in your despair,
Carnations in you anguish,
Dandelions your anxiety,
And orchids in your depression
I hope flowers fill every hole where you have been hurt
So when you look at the wounds this cruel world has dealt you
You only see beauty
And if I'm lucky, they'll remind you of me
